Old man Regan with his finger on the button!!

It seems like the press is just recycling stories with a simple name substitution.

I strongly believe nukes should only be launched with the approval of two branches or government. Limited pre-authorisation should be allowed, but it must sunset every few months.
Another applies to every president statement, made alarmist because Trump. Can we focus on real issues before the signal to noise ratio gets worse? God forbid he does do something awful, would we just see it as more clickbait at this point? Reminds me of a story about a wolf.
A man whom allegedly grabs women without their permission, seemingly lacking self-control, is about to be given sole power to kill nearly everyone on the planet. Except in this case, there is no wolf to cry about until the bombs are exploding, and then it's far too late to say "I told you so" or debate checks-and-balances and limits of executive power.
